Central Supports Reading for All

The YOLO/SADD Club at Central High School held a book drive between Oct.
21-Nov.4 to support the Book Fairies organization, a group that
collects reading materials for people in need throughout the
metropolitan New York area. The books are distributed to high-poverty
school districts and community outreach programs across Long Island and
New York. The YOLO /SADD club successfully collected close to 300 books
for readers of all ages; children, teenagers, and adults. The Book
Fairies graciously accepted this donation and wrote a thank you letter
to the kind participants at Central. "We are fortunate to have your
support,” their note stated. “We are changing people's stories...one
book at a time!” The students and their club advisor, teacher Reyna
Batista, look forward to another successful book drive in the Spring.
